Dog-loving family ready to help you

Pet care experience

I have loved animals of all kinds since I was a small child. That love for animals has been shared in my home and we all have a love for animals. We have 2 fully vaccinated doodles who love to play and look forward to our furry guests coming over!

Our GSP was well taken care of and Laddona sent us videos. We had a great vacation knowing our dog was in good hands.

She really spoiled my pups and I hope she's available the next time we go out of town! Lots of great pictures and videos and my dogs were in a great mood when I picked them up!

LaDonna and her family arr absolutely amazing with animals. Lurch fell in love with them and became tight at home with them. I received plenty of pics & videos thru-out his stay with her. I requested a bath for an extra fee and he came home smelling fresh with an amazing shiny clean coat. My Lurch fit right under on in with her dogs becuz they was all the same size which made it that much more cute that he has made him some friends. I didn't know LaDonna before this qnd this was the first tine I have ever used "Rover.com" and there was a few others who was close to me also but LaDonna's pic and her summary immediately told me that SHE was the ONE I wanted to watch my sweet Lurch. And apparently my first gut feeling was correct from the beginning. I really can't express how grateful & appreciative I am of LaDonna and her family for treating my Lurch as if he was a part of their family too. I definitely 100% suggest to anyone looking for a dog sitter to get ahold of Ladonna and enjoy her for all your kennel needs. Again, she ie AMAZING!!!

***PLEASE READ THOROUGHLY*** We require all dogs that we keep to be up to date with their shots and do request proof of vaccinations that MUST include, Rabies, Bordatella, DAPP (Distemper, Adenovirus, Parainfluenza and Parvovirus) and Lepto. Puppies must have at least their first 3 sets of shots (meaning they are now fully vaccinated) AND be at least 16 weeks old in order to stay with us. The reason behind this is, during this period, your puppy should have completed their vaccinations by 16 weeks. We LOVE puppies and would love to keep you weeks old puppies, but it’s not wise and it’s not safe and we want to be confident in your pets safety by knowing that they are fully vaccinated. If your pets shots are not up to date, we will be not be keeping them. This is non-negotiable! Not only do we want to keep your pet safe but also our own fur babies as illnesses can linger outside and inside for months after original exposure to that environment. A fully vaccinated pet is best in any boarding or doggy daycare environment, ESPECIALLY puppies! Your pets profile must be completely filled out and include a picture and veterinarian information. We do not accept ANY dogs with aggressive tendencies and/or are fearful of new people as they are likely to run making it difficult to catch and may possibly bite. This is not a risk we are willing to take. We only keep 3-4 dogs at a time as to ensure that your furbabies have our utmost attention. All pets are allowed to free roam during the day to play with their furry friends and human friends but will be crated when we are not home (usually to run errands). Pets may periodically be crated throughout the day if troublesome behaviors occur. All pets will be crated overnight for their safety. We have a LARGE fenced in yard, lots of toys with two super friendly and playful doodles to keep your pet company. Pet parents are asked to bring a crate or carrier, special toys/treats/blanket that they would like their pets to have if it may make them more comfortable and food/water bowls. We can try and accommodate your furbabies by supplying some items if we can, but just let us know! We would love to host your pet and provide a safe, loving environment for them while you are away.

Information Ladonna M. would like to know about your pet

We do not accept ANY dogs with aggressive tendencies and/or are fearful of new people. When a dog is afraid of new people they will often run, making it difficult for us to catch to bring inside or when it is time for them to go. These dogs are also prone to bite out of fear and it is not a risk we are willing to take. Again, absolutely NO aggressive dogs or dogs with bullying tendencies will be accepted for our safety, other pets safety and your pets safety. Also, your furbabies will need to be on a flea and tick preventative prior to arrival and all vaccinations must be up to date. Your booking will be cancelled if your pet comes here infested with fleas and/or ticks and you are unable to go and get your pet a preventative that works immediately and that will last length of the stay. Most pet parents have their babies on monthly preventatives but if you do not, it is recommended to go and get a soft chew preventative a few days prior to arrival. We have never had any issues with flea infestations and would love to keep it that way! We hope to accommodate any needs your baby may have so please let us know so that we can determine best routine for care. As you can tell, we LOVE dogs and want all of our furry guests to be safe and healthy and return home to their parents the same way. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to message. We would love to help!

A typical day
